# GLFW |

|
## Introduction |
|
|
|
GLFW is a free, Open Source, multi-platform library for OpenGL, OpenGL ES and |
|
Vulkan application development. It provides a simple, platform-independent API |
|
for creating windows, contexts and surfaces, reading input, handling events, etc. |
|
|
|
Version 3.2 is _not yet described_. |
|
|
|
If you are new to GLFW, you may find the |
|
[tutorial](http://www.glfw.org/docs/latest/quick.html) for GLFW |
|
3 useful. If you have used GLFW 2 in the past, there is a |
|
[transition guide](http://www.glfw.org/docs/latest/moving.html) for moving to |
|
the GLFW 3 API. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Compiling GLFW |
|
|
|
See the [Compiling GLFW](http://www.glfw.org/docs/latest/compile.html) guide in |
|
the GLFW documentation. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Using GLFW |
|
|
|
See the |
|
[Building programs that use GLFW](http://www.glfw.org/docs/latest/build.html) |
|
guide in the GLFW documentation. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Reporting bugs |
|
|
|
Bugs are reported to our [issue tracker](https://github.com/glfw/glfw/issues). |
|
Please always include the name and version of the OS where the bug occurs and |
|
the version of GLFW used. If you have cloned it, include the commit ID used. |
|
|
|
If it's a build issue, please also include the build log and the name and |
|
version of your development environment. |
|
|
|
If it's a context creation issue, please also include the make and model of your |
|
graphics card and the version of your driver. |
|
|
|
This will help both us and other people experiencing the same bug. |
|
|
|
|
|
## Dependencies |
|
|
|
GLFW itself needs only the headers and libraries for your window system. It |
|
does not need the headers for any context creation API (WGL, GLX, EGL, NSGL) or |
|
rendering API (OpenGL, OpenGL ES, Vulkan) to enable support for them. |
|
|
|
The examples and test programs depend on a number of tiny libraries. These are |
|
located in the `deps/` directory. |
|
|
|
- [getopt\_port](https://github.com/kimgr/getopt_port/) for examples |
|
with command-line options |
|
- [TinyCThread](https://github.com/tinycthread/tinycthread) for threaded |
|
examples |
|
- An OpenGL 3.2 core loader generated by |
|
[glad](https://github.com/Dav1dde/glad) for examples using modern OpenGL |
|
- [linmath.h](https://github.com/datenwolf/linmath.h) for linear algebra in |
|
examples |
|
- [Vulkan headers](https://www.khronos.org/registry/vulkan/) for Vulkan tests |
|
|
|
The Vulkan example additionally requires the Vulkan SDK to be installed, or it |
|
will not be included in the build. |
|
|
|
The documentation is generated with [Doxygen](http://doxygen.org/). If CMake |
|
does not find Doxygen, the documentation will not be generated. |
|
